This year Halou celebrates 12 years as a band and returns with their most compelling work to date. In additon to the bands work on their own album, the past few years have been spent using their production skills to help sculpt the sound of such artists as DJ Shadow, Lyrics Born, Frank Sinatra, Galactic, Blackalicious, John Cale, Low, No Doubt and even a Rod Stewart remix which hit #1 on Billboard. In addition, Halou has scored 2 successful award winning films, "This Girl's Life" starring James Woods [http://movies.msn.com/movies/movie.aspx?m=548954], and "Quality of Life" [trailer featuring Halous music: http://www.qualityoflife-themovie.com/]. Their music was also recently featured on CSI in the shows climax montage. Throughout all of this, the band has still found the time to create their finest album and perform select live shows such as Seattle's Bumbershoot festival, The San Francisco International Film Festival, and the SF Museum of Modern Art. A full national tour is in the works for 2008.
